Forward-Looking Statements

This presentation contains statements relating to future results of the company (including certain projections and
business trends) that are “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as “believe,” “expect,”
“anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,” “are likely to be,” “will” and similar expressions.  Actual results may differ
materially from those projected as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to global
economic and market cycles and conditions; the demand for commercial, specialty and light vehicles for which the
company supplies products; risks inherent in operating abroad (including foreign currency exchange rates and
potential disruption of production and supply due to terrorist attacks or acts of aggression); availability and cost of
raw materials, including steel and oil; OEM program delays; demand for and market acceptance of new and
existing products; successful development of new products; reliance on major OEM customers; labor relations of
the company, its suppliers and customers, including potential disruptions in supply of parts to our facilities or
demand for our products due to work stoppages; the financial condition of the company’s suppliers and
customers, including potential bankruptcies; possible adverse effects of any future suspension of normal trade
credit terms by our suppliers; potential difficulties competing with companies that have avoided their existing
contracts in bankruptcy and reorganization proceedings; successful integration of acquired or merged businesses;
the ability to achieve the expected annual savings and synergies from past and future business combinations and
the ability to achieve the expected benefits of restructuring actions; success and timing of potential divestitures;
potential impairment of long-lived assets, including goodwill; potential adjustment of the value of deferred tax
assets; competitive product and pricing pressures; the amount of the company’s debt; the ability of the company
to continue to comply with covenants in its financing agreements; the ability of the company to access capital
markets; credit ratings of the company’s debt; the outcome of existing and any future legal proceedings, including
any litigation with respect to environmental or asbestos-related matters; rising costs of pension and other post-
retirement benefits and possible changes in pension and other accounting rules; as well as other risks and
uncertainties, including but not limited to those detailed herein and from time to time in other filings of the
company with the SEC.  These forward-looking statements are made only as of the date hereof, and the company
